This is called "excess" or sometimes, "umbrella" coverage. It can be written by the same insurer that writes the primary limits if it offers such coverage. If it does not, you may have go to another insurer for it. The excess insurer may require a minimum primary coverage limit before it will issue such a policy. Typically, it is less costly than primary insurance because it does not have an obligation to pay until primary limits are exhausted. It can usually be had in both personal and commercial lines of insurance and in varying amounts.

After talking to the other person's insurance company, an excluded driver is essentially equivalent to an uninsured motorist. That means that his/her insurance company will not represent them and that, if they are liable for the accident, your insurance company can go after them personally for the damages.
